1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The Ca(2+) sensor synaptotagmin (Syt) VII regulates the exocytosis of conventional lysosomes in several cell types. In CTLs, the Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis of lytic granules/secretory lysosomes is responsible for the perforin/granzyme-mediated lysis of target cells. To investigate the role of Syt VII in CTL effector function, the expression and function of Syt VII were examined in wild-type and Syt VII-deficient mice. In comparison with Syt VII(+/+) controls, Syt VII(-/-) animals were impaired in their ability to clear an infection with the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. When isolated CTLs were examined, we found that Syt VII is expressed upon CTL activation and localizes to granzyme A-containing lytic granules. Syt VII-deficient CTLs have no defects in proliferation and cytokine production, and their lytic granules contain normal amounts of perforin and granzyme A and polarize normally at the immunological synapse. However, despite normal conjugate formation with target cells, CTLs from Syt VII(-/-) mice exhibit reduced effector activity, when compared with controls. Treatment of Syt VII(+/+) or Syt VII(-/-) CTLs with an inhibitor of the perforin-mediated lytic pathway resulted in comparable levels of cytotoxic activity, suggesting that Syt VII regulates perforin-mediated cytolytic CTL responses.
